🤝 Sponsorship: it’s more than just saying “Okay.”

What does it actually mean to sponsor someone?
How do you know when you’re ready?
What do you do when your sponsee relapses, disappears, or asks a question you don’t have an answer to?

Come to our Sponsorship workshop and hear members share their experiences: the rewards, the challenges, the mistakes, and what they’ve learned along the way.

💬 Together we’ll explore:

• What sponsorship is (and what it isn’t)
• How to know when you’re ready to sponsor
• Boundaries, expectations, and keeping it clean
• How sponsorship strengthens your recovery too

Whether you’re sponsored, sponsoring, or just thinking about it, this workshop is for you.

💙 Recovery works best with one addict sharing honestly with another.

🏥 Hospitals & Institutions (H&I)

What makes an H&I presentation land effectively?

Is it the story? The honesty? The moment a newcomer hears something that sounds like their own life?

Join us for a hands-on H&I workshop with guest speakers sharing their experience, strength and hope: how they identified with the NA message, what drew them to their first meeting, what kept them coming back, and how they carry that message into H&I today.

💬 Together we’ll workshop it: how do we best carry our message of hope to the addict who still suffers?

Whether you’re new to H&I or have years of service, come add your voice. Bring your experience; leave with more tools. 🧰
